據能源世界網4月9日莫斯科報道，俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司（Gazprom）預計，受疫情影響的歐洲天然氣需求將從第三季度開始復蘇。

俄氣表示，由于與疫情相關的封鎖和溫暖的天氣，最近幾周歐洲需求下降加速，而發電需求并未因轉用煤炭而下降。

俄氣預計，封鎖期將導致歐洲天然氣市場在今年第三-第四季度恢復增長。

其還在周三的報告中表示，俄氣在電話中表示，其希望今年實現積極的自由現金流，并致力于其新的股息政策。

俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司沒有立即回應置評請求。

Russia's Gazprom expects EU gas market to recover from Q3: Rencap

Gazprom expects European gas demand, dented by the coronavirus crisis, to start recovering from the third quarter, Renaissance Capital wrote after a call with the Russian gas giant.

Renaissance Capital wrote in a note that Gazprom said the drop in European demand accelerated in recent weeks due to the coronavirus-related lockdowns and warm weather, while power generation demand did not fall due to switching from coal.

"Gazprom expects the lockdown roll-over will result in European gas markets resuming growth in 3Q-4Q 2020," Renaissance Capital said.

It also said in Wednesday's note that Gazprom had said on the call that it wanted to achieve positive free cash flow this year and was committed to its new dividend policy.

Gazprom did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
